When we say physical appearance, we mean the shades and hues it comes in, as well as the hardwood type. There are plenty to choose from - from oak, to maple, to walnut, you have plenty of options. There are also dining room sets that you can choose to make the whole process easier. Arts and Crafts dining room sets are one of them, and these help recreate a period of time in history - specifically the Renaissance period. Know your preferences, and also take pictures of your current dining room. This is just so that when go into the stores, you have a basis or a foundation for comparing and contrasting your options.

Don't be afraid to experiment with color! That's the good thing about hickory - you can try all sorts of colors without looking like you've gone crazy trying to decorate your dining room area. This is what hickory is best for - flexibility and versatility when it comes to redecorating and accessorizing.
